    About this audiobook

    Stop Living Paycheck to Paycheck and Get Your Financial Life Together (#GYFLT)!

    If you're a cash-strapped 20- or 30-something, it's easy to get freaked out by finances. But you're not doomed to spend your life drowning in debt or mystified by money. It's time to stop scraping by and take control of your money and your life with this savvy and smart guide.

    Broke Millennial shows step-by-step how to go from flat-broke to financial badass. Unlike most personal finance books out there, it doesn't just cover boring stuff like credit card debt, investing, and dealing with the dreaded “B” word (budgeting). Financial expert Erin Lowry goes beyond the basics to tackle tricky money matters and situations most of us face #IRL, including:

    - Understanding your relationship with moolah: do you treat it like a Tinder date or marriage material?
    - Managing student loans without having a full-on panic attack
    - What to do when you're out with your crew and can't afford to split the bill evenly
    - How to get “financially naked” with your partner and find out his or her “number” (debt number, of course) . . . and much more.

    Packed with refreshingly simple advice and hilarious true stories, Broke Millennial is the essential roadmap every financially clueless millennial needs to become a money master. So what are you waiting for? Let's #GYFLT!

      This includes some good fairly basic advice, and then a ton of weird condescending asides sandwiched between bizarre pandering attempts at #millenialtalk. This is marketed to concerned parents and weird uncle's who want to teach their realitives about money.

      This is a great book to build financial literacy. I was searching for a book to give my sister and younger cousin (who is graduating from college this year). This book is equally great for people that are just entering the workforce and need an intro to personal finance and people who have run into some challenges along the way.

      Just an okay book. I knew a lot of the things going in. I recommend for those who know nothing about how to save or pay off debt. Entertaining for sure.

      This was great. Learned a lot and explained really well
    • 4/5
      Great book. Mostly aimed for young people. Still has very valuable advice
    • 4/5
      Secret: housekeeping and financial self-help books are some of my unspoken favorite books to read. They're so positive about how you can change your life, and become the true adult you think everyone else is.

      This book does make you feel that. And it offer some great advice along the way. And it's not all self-help speak, there's actual, practical advice (like which bank type is right for you brick-and-mortar or internet-only). I like that the author offers objective options, then usually adds what she does personally. There's no philosophy to sell here other than, "here's how to understand and have a good relationship with money."

      Overall, think this is a great book for those just striking out on their own. And it's a pretty good book for anyone who feels their relationship with money could use some improvement.
    • 4/5
      Great book for people in their 20s and 30, but also for anyone who wants to know the latest ways to bank in the modern age. I found the advice helpful on how to budget and make a plan for paying down debt, while also putting money into a savings account. As a finance major who took personal finance classes, her steps were align with what I learned in college, but expanded on practical advice and gave examples of types of services millennials should be taking advantage of that may not of been around 10 years ago and unaware of by our parents, who most of us learned financial literacy from.
